Customer comments - More Raving Fans!

Received more positive comment cards this week - thanks to all of our loyal customers - what they are saying this week:

"Everything was great!"

"I eat here 3-4 days a week. I love it! The workers are pleasant and friendly. Keep it up! I also love the punch cards!"

"I watched sandwich paradise on the travel channel and googled Jersey Mike's to find the plano location. OH MY GOODNESS you guys have great sandwiches and the person that represents you here does a great job. His shop was spotless and they kept everyone moving. I loved your sandwiches, it was a pleasant surprise finding you guys, thanks for making a great sandwich"

"Great! I wish we had more!"

City of Plano Code Changes for Granite Park

The economy is not doing well, right???? We all know this; but, the City of Plano does not care. They decide that we need panic hardware not only on the back door; but, the front door as well....what???? in this project we all have the same nice 12 foot high glass doors......now ours will have beautiful panic hardware adorning it....very nice....the price tag? only $3,500 additional not in the budget....no worries, thank you Plano!

A big topic of discussion each week at the Chamber is shop/buy/build Plano first.... I agree; however, small business must be supported by the City as well....ridiculous codes such as this, make no sense except to put money in the City coffers and hurt the small business.

After spending almost $3,000 to fix the window, paint the wall, & get a new TV installed.....I am not happy about this latest $3,500 bill.......oh well, we have great customers, thank you!

Hey, come buy a sub! why aren't you at Jersey Mike's Plano!

Supportive Customers

As you know by now, we had a break-in yesterday, see the pics below.....Window is fixed, new TV on the way today. It was a long day yesterday; but, I must brag about our customers! Each and every one of our regulars reached out to tell us how badly they felt about the damage and how they could not believe it either. Many talked about feeling sick to their stomachs, etc....made the day much easier for us.

We have great customers, thank you from all of us at Jersey Mike's Plano, we APPRECIATE you more than you know.

Thank you, thank you, have a great day!

3:45 AM wake up call - can't be good can it?




When the phone rings in the middle of the night, it can never be good. Not seeing one of the kids phone numbers was a relief, not one of the grandma's.....but, this can't be good. How about Hawk Security telling me the alarm is going off at the store. Out the door in two minutes for the 16 mile drive...half way there, they call again, Police requesting a key carrier, yes, HELLO! I am on my way, will be there in 10 minutes.

Arrive via Chisholm Pl. and see headlights shining on shattered glass from the side window, can't be good, can it?????? The cop is no where to be seen; but, the CSI lady is waiting for me....I am a smart one, I get my keys out to open the door....."um, we unlocked it from the inside after we went through the window." Well, thank you Callie, oh no you are not wearing a short mini with heels are you?????? Damn, can't a guy catch a break this early in the morning?

Quick Look, One 42" inch Samsung HD TV gone, bunch of glass to clean up, nothing else missing. Her comes the cop, he has been running down the street watching 3 perps who dine and ditched at Denny's, running why, does your parked car whose motor is purring not capable......"any questions." Nope..

Paperwork, they are gone in 5 minutes and I have an early start to my Saturday morning prep after cleaning up glass and sanitizing the table and chairs they used to catapulte themselves onto the top of the pepsi water cooler to take the TV from the "secure bracket".

Did I mention that yet???? A/V guy tells me, "there will be a giant hole in your wall before they get that TV down!" Wanna bet?????? Guess he forgot to secure the TV to the bracket....NICE! Bracket survived well, thank goodness.

Well, all in all, guess it could have been worse, nobody hurt, no additional vandalism, just a new $631 window and a new $1,500 50" TV.

Let's sell some subs to pay for the damage!

Forecasting

These days I feel like a weatherman.....let me explain......in the past after a few months in a new job, in this case, new business entirely, I have been able to predict within reason what is going to happen day to day, week to week, month to month. Of course, I am an optimist and I occasionally would predict GREAT things and they would only be GOOD or worse; but, not very often. Well, that was acceptable, but, now.......trying to predict on a daily basis is impossible....by week a little better, by month forget about it!

Example, Monday rain during lunch....bad day, predictable....Tuesday, no rain, bad day....hmm...no business after 2PM....today, forcasted rain to begin at 11AM, no rain came; but, customers came by the droves, the best lunch we have ever had!

Not complaining, just wish I could figure it out! Oh well, learning to relax and live with it.
